QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jun 12, 2015 -> 02:56 PM) It's probably been said but, do the Sox view Zangari as a hitter or pitcher? Drafted as 1B, though of course that could change.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 12, 2015 -> 02:56 PM) If I had to guess (team said 34 picks leaving out JRIII and McMillian I am sure)... Unsigned are Fulmer, Erwin, Hasler, Michael Hickman, Alston Garvin, Cody Staab. Not sure on the other 3. Erwin is signed - have it on the Tracker.

Recap posted.

Updates on Zack Erwin, Blake Hickman and Jake Fincher all added to the tracker. Also Flores and a couple others from earlier this afternoon. Lots of signing reports.

See the minor league catch-all for an Anderson update.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 11, 2015 -> 05:32 PM) What is the point of the Reinsdorf draft? Like he's not signing and surely everyone knows it's a nepotism pick, so what gain is there? Is it the hope that some college sees "draft pick by the White Sox" on his CV and doesn't recognise the name? It might be a 0.001% chance that your 40th round pick does anything for you in the majors, maybe unlikely you even want to sign anyone at that point because of numbers, but I'm not seeing the advantage even for the Reinsdorf kid in the pick. Its like winning a Dundy, but in baseball. I personally think its silly too, though other teams do it. And its not a huge deal, as long as its at the very back end of the draft. The KW Jr pick in the 6th round years back, now that was just assinine and I hated that one.

Dante Flores tells me he "absolutely" plans to sign. Tracker updated with that and some other info.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 11, 2015 -> 04:48 PM) How do you know he isn't signing? lol He isn't even on New Trier's roster. I was on New Trier's roster at one time (very) long ago, and I was far, far, far away from a chance at pro ball.

Bradley Strong says "his journey to the White Sox begins today", on Twitter. So he's likely on board.

QUOTE (knightni @ Jun 11, 2015 -> 02:04 PM) I commented on two because they weren't bolded in the first post. Oh, you mean the one on here? OK I was talking about the Draft Tracker on Future Sox. I haven't been maintaining the one in here. People can just follow the link to the blog so its in one place for SoxTalk as well as the rest of the audience. But if someone wants to update the OP in here, feel free!

Jordan Stephens said yesterday he was headed here to do physical and sign. Now looks like he's officially done it. By the way, you guys are doing all this digging up and posting, a lot of it is in the Tracker already. But if you find anything that isn't, please do post it, and we'll update - thanks!

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jun 11, 2015 -> 10:01 AM) Why do DSL scores come in so late? I guess the games aren't played in the DR? They are played in the DR. Not sure why so late - probably they have trouble hiring stringers for those games.

Recap posted.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 07:27 PM) I meant the other Hickman we draft. OU commit. Seems like nice potential. Unlikely. Already going over on Zangari, and Comito will raid the pool by 70k from 15th. He's probably the De Oca of this draft - consolation prize if Fulmer (Rodon) doesn't sign, they'll take a shot but just not likely to happen.

The Draft Tracker on FutureSox has been updated with all known current statuses. Updates on a good dozen or more players.

QUOTE (3GamesToLove @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 11:47 AM) I clicked on the BRef link to Spencer Adams, and... It's a real shame the guy never really put it together. Still stuck in Low A at the age of 116. Got to admire his love of the game; I think most would've given up on the dream and hung up the spikes by now. LOL, yeah, I'll remind the guys to use the modified linker code we instituted.

Today is Day 3, final day of the draft. Rounds 11-40. Starts at 11am CT. Future Sox Draft Tracker - has info on all 10 rounds thus far, will be updated live during the draft today. We'll be tweeting out picks and info too of course @FutureSox

Recap posted.

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Jun 9, 2015 -> 04:38 PM) Coats has some quick hands. Did you watch his 2 HR game highlights? Lightning hands. Video and scouting report here. Hands do indeed get out quick. He's a prospect.

Tracker has both pitching and hitting video links for Zangari. Has also played catcher.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 9, 2015 -> 01:43 PM) Don't think there's any correlation, as you're not counting on the guys picked here to be an impact player. Unless they are planning to grab an over-slot guy. Though usually that is in round 11+.

Underway. Tracker being maintained, will be updated with all the Sox picks and some details for each. Link in first post.

Here's the Day Two thread. Rounds 3-10, starts 12pm CT. Future Sox Draft Tracker - will be updated live From last night... Sox Draft Fulmer Fulmer Scouting Report

Going to re-name this a Day 1 thread, and start a Day 2 thread. Unpinning this one shortly. Just want to not bury discussion.

Recap posted.
